Hayes Hargrove

Short Biography

After several years performing in New York City, actor/comedian HAYES HARGROVE has headed back to his comedy roots in Los Angeles, where he honed his sketch writing and improv skills with the famed GROUNDLINGS. Currently at the UPRIGHT CITIZENS BRIGADE, Hayes recently hosted their signature show ASSSSCAT with members of SNL, 30 Rock, Daily Show, and Colbert Report. Hayes can also be seen flexing his acting chops on screens big and small. The AUSTIN FILM FESTIVAL hailed Hayes' first feature film, BEYOND THE PALE, as an “off-beat performance that reminds you of Andy Kaufman.” Hayes was lucky enough to screen not one, but two shorts at CANNES INDIE this year: FINGERS (co-star and co-producer) and festival darling TAKE MY WIFE. Hayes just wrapped production of two web series, CHESTNUT HILLS and HIGH MAINTENANCE, and the feature films STARLIGHT & SUPERFISH (with Wendi McLendon-Covey) and ART HOUSE, where Hayes stars opposite Greta Gerwig (Greenberg) and The Godfather of Punk himself, IGGY POP! In addition to performing on LATE NIGHT WITH CONAN O’BRIEN, Hayes also frequently stars in national commercials including a recently banned MILLER LITE spot with Goodfellas Mike Starr and Frank Vincent. Oooh...controversial!!! Plus be sure to check out Hayes as a nerdy terrorist on USA's smash hit BURN NOTICE as well as a turn opposite Raven-Symoné on her new ABC Family sitcom STATE OF GEORGIA.
